#29 - amfs (armoured full mobility suit)

dejawolf

well, i have a bit of a headstart on this, but it fits perfectly with the challenge! so i hope i'm still allowed to enter.
the suit is based around the armorme character posted on polycount quite a while ago.
its currently far too poly heavy at around 8000, but i'm going to reduce it to the set count(theres a lot of under-armour cabling and such, as well as several layers of regular kevlar body armour.
the suit is made to resist high-velocity 25mm apfsds,
from the front, and 7.62mm from the rear.
i got the paper concepts somewhere around, although i gotta dig a bit.

thinking about having a spall-protecting undersuit, with a fire-retardent layer, that is put on, before adding the suit itself, although i'm a bit uncertain about how the suit is to be put on.
its probably going to need airconditioning in desert climates heh. hmmm..

stats:
weight: around 500-600kg (not sure yet)
built in weapon: 16mm short-barreled full-auto machine cannon capable of firing up to 250RPM.
bullet types includes ap and he-frag.
max carrying capacity: 700-800kg
ammunition carried: 430 rounds
sustainable running speed: 35-40kph
max running speed: 50kph

WOw, that's cool!=) i think he's left leg is great target for shooting=)

dejawolf

thanks. ahh, forgot to tell that the gun can be fully stabilized, although it limits the flexibility of the gun movement, it means the soldier can fire accurately at targets 500m away while running. the suit also has a laser range finder, working out to around 2000m, and the helmet has 8x zoom capability, and a thermal camera.

So, we're allowed to enter with models that are already wip?

hawken

wow! now we are getting somewhere!
How about that left leg? Good luck on bringing down the polycount, tons of areas that can be normal mapped.

SupRore: the rules are rather basic, looking forward to seeing an entry from you!

haha a modern day myrmillo! awesome concept! i kinda like the one leg armour but shouldnt he also have a riot shield or something to protect the exposed flank?

dejawolf

ah, the one leg armour isn't really a feature, i just haven't put armour on the 2nd leg yet. hard to walk when you weight around 800kg heheh, thats why there has to be exoskeleton on the 2nd leg as well.
the gun armor functions as a shield, when held towards the enemy, and most of the body is heavily protected on the front.
